On today's complex, fragmented, fast-moving battlefield, where
combatants adapt constantly to exploit one-another's weaknesses,
there is a demonstrable requirement for military commanders to
devolve a high level of autonomy of decision-making and action to
leaders on the ground. An effective model for doing this has
existed for some time in the form of "mission command" and has been
utilized by the U.S., Israeli, and British Armies--but with mixed
success.
This book examines in depth the experiences of the armed forces of
each of these countries in implementing mission command, and
reveals the key factors that have determined the success or failure
of the implementation--factors such as the Revolution in Military
Affairs (RMA), the spread of low-intensity conflicts and operations
other than war, and differences in how military cultures interpret,
articulate, and exercise the command function. It has significant
implications for both the development of military doctrine and the
training and education of tomorrow's military leaders.
